Title: Putty 0.79 not detected
Post by: Raenil on August 31, 2023, 12:58:03 AM

Hi,
PatchMyPC 4.5.0.4 reports that putty is outdated - reported version is 0.78, newest is 0.79.

But there is no update button.

I've verified that only one putty.exe exists on the computer:
C:\>dir putty.exe /s /b
C:\Program Files\PuTTY\putty.exe

And this putty IS updated.

This means you have v0.78 and v0.79 installed at the same time, it's a known issue just in this new release, you have to manually uninstall v0.78, check the note in here:

Thank you, that worked.
It would be a great help if PatchMyPc could somehow log the path of scanned vulnerable software.
